Long before the events I which hare of late imparted so much importance to the possetwiona of the United tfitstes on the Pe i elfin, we ecknowlecked the independence of the I Hawaiian government. 11tia Government was , first in taking that step, and aren't ut the leading powers of Europe immediately followed. We ' were influenced in thin measure by the existing and prospective importance of the Islands as a place of refuge itid 'refreshment for our vessels en gaged in the whale fishery, and by the considers• tjon that they lie in the course of the great trade which Inuit, at no distant day, be carried on be tween the western coast of North America and Eastern Asia. . We were tilso influenced by a desire that those Islands should not pass under the control of any I. other great maritime State, but shOuld remain in an independent condition, and so be accessible nod useful to the Commerce of all nations. 1 need out siy that the importance of these considerations has been greatly enhauced by tho sudden and vast de.l velopment which the interests of the C. States have attained in California and OregOn ; and the policy heretofore adopted in regard to those Ise lands will be ceodily puieued. It is gratifying not only to those who consider the commercial interests of nations, but also to all I who favor the prelims of knowledge and the flit fusion of religion, to see a community onWrge from a savage State and attain such a degree of civilization in those-distatit seas.

Our commerce with China is highly important, and is becoming more rin(l more so, In consequence of the increasing intercourse between our ports on the Pacific coast and Eastern Asia.

Ninon of territory, from Mexico. that the esti mates for the rwil fiscal year should be laid before Congress in such Manner as to distin guish the expenditUrea flo required from the otherwise ordinary demands upon the 'fruasu- ry. The total expenditures for the next fiscal year are estimated #41,899499 19, of which there is required for the ordinary purposes of the Government, other than those consequent upon the acquisition or our new Territories, and deducting the payments on aerount of the public debt, the sum of 833,343,198 08; and for the purposes connected directly or indirect ly with those Territories, and in the fulfilment of the obligations of the Government, con tracted in consequence of their acquisition, thew m of $9,519,101 11. If the views of the Secretary of the Treas ury in reference to the expenditures required for these territories shall be met by correspond ing action on the part of Congress, and appro priations mods in accordance therewith, there will be an estimated unappropriated balance in the Treasury on the 30th June, 1853, of 11'20,- 369,443 90. wherewith to meet that portion of time public debt due on the first July following. ; amounting to $6437,931 35, as well as any • appropriations which may be made beyond the estimates. • - • In thus referring to the estimated expendl , lures on account of our newly-acquired Terri tories, I may express the %flee that Congress will concur with me in the desire that a liber al mouse of policy may be pursued towards them, and that every übligiition,express or Im plied, entered into in consequence of their acquisition, shall be fulfilled by the roost lib eral appropriations Ica that purpose.

If the present and antici pated surplus in the Treasuary should mot be absorbed by appropriations of en extraordinary character, this surplus should be employed in such way. and under such restrictions, as Con gress may enact, in extinguishing the out standing debt of the nation. By reference to the act of Congress approv ed 9th September, 1850, it will be seen that, iit amcid,•ration or vert,titi voncessions by the taro of Tt•xas, it Is provided that the "lfnited :states shall pay to the Stole of Texas the sewn 01 ten millions of dollars ' in a stuck bearing tire per cent. interest, and redeemable at the end of fourteen years, the interest payable half yearly, at the Trensuary of the Unitsd States." In the same section of the law it is feather provithid "that no more than five millions of said stock shall be issued until the creditors of the State holding bonds and other oernficates of stock of 'Texas, fur which duties an imports inert especially pledged, shall first die et the Treasuary of the United States releases of all claims Radium the United :goes, for or on Re count ot - sidd' bond.) or eertifieMes, in such form as shall he prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury, and •approved by the President .of the United States." - The form or release theta provib!ed for has n presebibed by the Secretary of the Trona- ury, and approved. It has been published in all the leading newspapers in the commercial cities of the United States, and all persons holding claims of the kind specified in the for, goin proviso were required trefile their relea ses (in the fhnn thus prescribed) in theTreasi nry of the United States, eta or be ore the let day of October, 1831. Although this publics tiun has been continued trete the 25111 day of AlareG, 1851, yet up to this Ist-of October last comparatively few releases had been filed by the creditors of Texas." Thit authorities of this Stabil ref Texas. at the request of the secretary of the Treasury, have furnished n schedule of the public debt of that State created prior to her ailntission into the Union, with a copy of the laws under which each class was contracted. 9,738,695 2943 1,880 I have, front the documents fornielimi by the State of Teri's, determined the eineses el.thns which in my judatnent fill within the pnwisions a Pie 4et.of cunirese el the 9th of September, 1850.

In my last annu al message, to which I res pectfully refer, 1 stated briefly the reasons which induced me to recommend a modifica tion of the present tariff, by converting the ad valorem into a specific duty, wherever the ar ticle imported wits of such a character es to permit it, and thatsuch a discrimination should he in +de, in favor of the industrial • pursuits of our own country, as to encourage home pro duction without excluding fureign competi tion. The numerous frauds which continue to he practised upon the revenue, by false invoices and undervaluations. constitute an unanswer able reason for adopting specific instead of ad valorem duties in all cases where the nature of I the commodity does not forbid it. A striking illustration of these frauds will be exhibited in the Report of the Secretary of the 'Treasury, showing the custom-house valuation of articles imported under a former law subject to speci fic duties, when there was no inducement to undervaluation, and the custom-house valua tions of the same articles, under the present system of ad valorem duties, ao greatly reduc ed as to leave ;no doubt of the exhume:le of the' most flagrant abuses under the existing laws. This practical evasion of the present law, coat bitted with the languishing condition of some' of the great interests of the eountry, caused by over importations and consequent depressed prices, and with the failure in obtaining a for eign market for our increasing surplus of bread stuffi and provisionei haajnilueed we again, to, reeoutinepd a ,modificatiap of the existing tariff. • The report;Of the Secretary of the Interior, ; .which accompanies this .cutumunication, will., preeent a cundeesed statement of th'e operations 1 of tharithpottitrit departritent' of the Govern- , Ikteill be seen that, the, cash sales of the , public lapels exceed thoie Of' the titeeedingi 'year, and. - that then , is reason toentieipate. ea still •Itirater i *repute, .-netwithetaudine -the . large,donations whiten have been niade to ma ' o ofthe States; and theilberergreets Wirt& mdualsai a reward ter mililaty, ,seretees.-. 1 .

It is safer to coffer the inconveniences that now exist, for a short pe- riod, than, by premature legislation, to fasten on the country a system founded in error, which may place the whole subject beyond the future control of Congress.

To effect this• objects it is desirable that the necessary pro vision be made by law for the establishment tif lend offices in Califorria and Oregon, and for the efficient prosecution of the surveys at an early day. Some difficulties have occurred in organiz ing tho Territorial Governments of New Melt, ico and Utah ; and, when more accurate infor mation shall be obtained of the causes, a fur ther communication will be Leit) on that sub ject. In my last' annual communication to Con gress I recommended the establishment of an Agricultural Bureau, and I take this occasion again to invoke your favorable consideration of the subject. Agriculture mny justly be regarded as the groat interest °four people. Four-fifths. of our active population are employed in thOcultiva- Lion of the soil, and the rapid expansion of our settlements over new territory la daily adding to the nutebor of those engaged in that voca tion. Jostles and sound policy, therefore, alike require that the Government should sae all the means authorized by the Constitution t 9 promote the interests and welfare of that lot- Portent chis 9 of our fellow-citizens. And yet tt is a singular fact, whilst the manufacturing and commercial interests have engaged the ht.- tendon of Colittrt‘as during a large portion of every session, and our statutes abound in pro visions for their protection and encouragement, little has yet boon done directly for the ad• vanceinent s of agriculture. It is time that this reproach to our legislation should be removed; and 1 sincerely hope that the present Congress w•it! not close their labors vilthrort adopitog efficient means to supply the omissions dams° who have preceded them. An Agricultural Bureau, charred with the duty of collecting snit disscrninntinK correct information as to the hest modes ofcuitivation, and uf the most effectual moans of preserving and restoring the fertility of the suit, and of procuring and distrihuti lig seeds and plants and other vegetable productions, with instruction"' in regard to the soil, climate, and treatment best adapted to their growth, could not fail to he, in the language of AVaahingtou, in his last annual message to Congress, a "very cheap instrument of Immense national benefit." Itega rtli the act of Congress approved 2Stit September, ISO, granting hooray lands to persona who had been engaged in the mill• Wry serviCe Of the couiltry, s as a great measure of national justice and munificence, an anxious desire has been felt, by the officers entrusted with its immediate execution, to give prompt effect to its provisions. All the means %Idiot their control were, therefore, brought into re qui- it ion to expedite the adjudication Ofclainte, find I am gratified to he able to state that near one hundred thousand applications have been considered, and about seventy thousand war rants issued within the shalt space of nine months. If adequate provision be made by law to carry into effect the recommendations of the Departineut, it is confidently expected that, before the close of the next fiscal year, all who are entitled to the benefits of the act wilt have received their warrants. The secretary of the Interior has suggested in his report various ammidinenis of the laws relating to pensions and bounty lands, for the purpose of now effeetnally guarding against abuses and fraildsce the government, to allot which I invite year particular atunition. The large accessions to our Indian popula tion consequent upon the aciplisition of New 'Mexico and Califoinla, and the extension of our settlements into Utah and Oregon, have given increased interest and importance to our relations with the aboriginal race. No material change has taken place, within the last year, in the condition and prospects of the Indian tribes wile reside in the Northwes tern Territory and west of the Mississippi river. We are at peace with all of them; and it will he a source of pleasure to you to learn that they are gradually advancing in civilization and the pursuits of social life. Along the Mexican frontier, and in Califor nia, and Oregon, there have been occasional manifestat:uns of unfriendly feeling, and some depredations committed. lam satisfied, how ever, that they resulted wore from the destitute and starving condition of the Indians than limn any settled hostility toward the whites. As the settlements of our citizens progress towards them, the game upon which they mainly rely for subsistence is driven off or de stroyed, and the only alternative left to them is starvation or plunder. It becomes us to con sider, in view of this condition of things, whether justice and humanity, as well as an enlightened ecionomy, do not require that, in stead of seeking to punish them for offences which are the result of our own policy towards them, we should no. provide for their immedi ate wants and encourage them to engage in agriculture, and to rely on their labor, instead of the chase, fur the means of support. Various important treaties have been nego tiated with different tribes during the year, by which their title to large and valuable tracts of country has been extinguished, all of which will,'at the proper time, he submitted to the Senate for ratification.

The works' on many dr the harbors were left in an unfinished state, anessonsequently ex posed to the action of the ertnnents, which is fast destroying theta.

The protection of our southwestern frontier, and of the itiljacent Mexican States, against the Indian tubes within our border, has claimed my earnest and constant attention. Cameros' baying failed, at the last 'ntion, t) adopt my retaining° dation that an additional regiment of mouuted men, specially adapted to that service, should be raised, all that remained to Lid done, was to make the best use of the means at my disposal. Actor dinely, all the troops adapted to that service that rould pr operly be spared I ...m rinser quarters. have been concentrated on that 'mutter, and officers of Melt reputation selected to command them. A new arrangement id the military posts has also been made whereby the troops are brought nearer to the• Mexicali frontier and to the tribes they are intended to iii ere we. Sufficient time Ina not yet elapsed to realize all the benefits that are expected to result from these arrangements, but I have every reason to hope that they will effectually check their marauding expeditions. The nature of the country, which furnishes little for the sopport of an army, and affininda in places 111 refuge and concealment, is remarkably well adapted to this predatory war tare ; and we CaS scarcely hope that any military forte, combined with the greatest vigilance, can entirely suppress it . By the treaty' of Guadalupe Hidalgo, we are bound to protect the territory of Mexico against the incursions Of the savage tribes within our bor der "with equal diligence and energy" as if the seine were made within our territory or against our citizens. I have entice, tired to comply, as far as possible, with this provmon of the treaty. Orders have been given to the °direr+ commaiiii ing on that frontier to consnler the Mexican ter ritory and its inhabitants as equally with our own entitled to their protection ; and to make all their plans and arrangements with a view to the attainment of this object. Instructions bave also been gown to the Indian commissioner* and agents among these tribes, in ill treaties, to make the clauses designed for the protection of our own citizens, apply also to those of Mexico. I have 110 reason to doubt that these instructions have been fully carried intn effect. Nevertheless, it le probable that, in spite Mall our efforts, seine of the neighboring States of Mexico may have suffered, as our own have, from depredations by the Indians, To the difficulties of defending oar own territo ry, as above mentioned, are superadded, in defend ing that of Mexico, those that arise from its et motenees, from the feet that we have no right to station oar troops within. her limits, and that there is no efficient military totes on the Mexi can aide to cooperate with our own. So lung as this shall continue to be the cane, the number and activity of our troops will rather increase than diminish the evil, as the Indians will natu rally turn towards that country where they en counter the feast resistance. Yet these troops are necessary to subdue them, end to compel them to make and observe treaties. Until this shall have been done. neither country will enjoy any security from their attacks. The Indians in California, who had previously appeared of a peaceable character, and disposed to cultivate the friendship of the whites, have re cently committed several acts of hostility.
